Van Zant - It's Only Money lyrics

Grandpa used to keep his money buried three foot deep in mason jars He forgot more times than not where he left it stashed out in the yard He told us before he died; boys don't do what I did Save enough to get you by and go and spend all the rest Chorus It's only money, that's all it is Harder to make it than it is to spend Can't take it with ya, so don't let it get ya It's only money The waiter said our featured wine tonight's a California Merlot May I suggest the calamari, oysters or the escargot? She looked at me and smiled and in those blue eyes I got lost I said bring us one of each of them, I don't care what it costs It's only money, that's all it is Harder to make it than it is to spend Can't take it with ya, so don't let it get ya It's only money She found that diamond bracelet in the window of a j**elry store downtown Oh no She said I like the way it sparkles as she kissed me and I pulled my wallet Yes I did If it makes her happy I don't care how much they charge I still got a closet full of grandpa's mason jars It's only money, that's all it is Harder to make it than it is to spend Can't take it with ya, so don't let it get ya It's only money It's only money, that's all it is Harder to make it than it is to spend Can't take it with ya, so don't let it get ya It's only money It's only money It's only money It's only money
